Dreadful.<br /><br />More recently on flight back from Australia had to put up with kids running up and down aisle .<br /><br />Then of course there is the hardy perennial, the little sod who spends several hours kicking the back of your seat while parents ignore the little monster.<br /><br />The fact that children are on a flight does not mean they should not be controlled.<br /><br />I accept that coming into land some kids and indeed some adults suffer with the chang ein pressure, that does not mean the little sods can annoy everybody for the rest of the flightadamsmith1922https://www.blogger.com/profile/10876288212991263831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2686354713190138224.post-65676245176818058292010-03-17T10:46:48.240+13:002010-03-17T10:46:48.240+13:00Disagree - Charles hadn't had a "hard day...Disagree - Charles hadn't had a "hard day" - he himself confessed to having had a "relaxing weekend" in Auckland, at the taxpayer's expense.Keeping Stockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13635959917715078192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2686354713190138224.post-76016715760137872852010-03-17T09:05:02.683+13:002010-03-17T09:05:02.683+13:00This post is WIN!!!!!

There is no way that these parents are right wingers, only the lefties let their kids run amok on their and others lives. <br />A true right winger disciplines their kids, lefties somehow believe that arguing with a child as if its an adult is the way to go.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2686354713190138224.post-8908470069214855492010-03-16T23:04:46.530+13:002010-03-16T23:04:46.530+13:00The father's story doesn't quite fit toget...The father's story doesn't quite fit together. He says that the kids let out the odd squawk and a few yells, but then says Chauvel got shirty 20mins in, 40mins in, and again at the end. 20/40/end doesn't gel with "the odd squawk".

The comments from Chauvel went from:<br /><br /><i>"first, hissed,,,,,"Will you just shut up!""</i><br />to:<br /><i>"a more vocal....."Will you just shut up!""</i><br />to:<br /><i>"he turns to his friend in 3E and says........" I DONT KNOW WHY THEY LET THEM UP THERE""</i><br />which is summarised as:<br /><i>"verbally abuse my 2 year old in front of my 3 year old"</i><br /><br />So we have a hiss, a slightly louder hiss and a 'says'....and somehow this is verbal abuse?<br /><br />It's hard to give credibility to the details of the story. Seems like a blogger trying to make his own 'news'.Seánhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00105226003936491432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2686354713190138224.post-17942596875733584862010-03-16T21:43:18.909+13:002010-03-16T21:43:18.909+13:00It is easy to control one child with one adult on ...It is easy to control one child with one adult on a plane. When the number of children per parent goes up it is much more difficult. What would he know about the realities of raising children anyway? People need to lighten up.

Even at a young age they can be tuaght to understand the notion of responsibility for ones behaviour. It is up to parents to define what is acceptable and what is not. <br />A a parent I would have been mortified if my son had been irritating other passengers. His behaviour would be a direct reflection on my values. I accept that all children will misbehave at some time but all to often these days naughty behaviour is indulged.euminedeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07429294019936017390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2686354713190138224.post-58928418096642080022010-03-16T21:04:55.084+13:002010-03-16T21:04:55.084+13:00Thank You Busted Blonde.
